Trimming specific shape refer to other layer shape

ichliebedich

Hi All

there is 2 different layer shapes, the one shape is made by following the Cline of +12V net which is highlighted (red color), the other is large GND net (yellow)

I want to cut the red shape refer to the yellow shape boundary. I tried to cut using Shape Operations function, but it didn't do well that I want

that is just sample test, actual board that I design has quite complex shape (not retangle) so I need that function.

Is there any good way to solve this problem?

regard.

    I do it with Select Shape/Manual Void and create a void in the Yellow shape around the trace on the other layer.

    And when working with shapes (editing), you can change the active layer once the shape is selected and change it an Etch Layer in case you have smaller grid spacings on the Etch layers.
